Quotes:

“He is skinny, but he is explosive, possessing a dynamic first step that will allow him to get into the lane. He's already an extremely creative passer. His shot is a work in progress, but scouts said it has improved in the last year, to the point where he could be a combo guard in the pros.” - David Aldridge, NBA.com

“Exum has the potential to be a dynamic defender. His quickness and lateral movement enables him to stay with smaller point guards while his size gives him the versatility to defend at the two or three. His size also helps him rebound the ball well at both ends of the court.” - Jim Coughenour, SB Nation

“If you’re an NBA general manager with an Exum fascination, you’re no doubt more fascinated by the idea of what Exum could be, with his 6-6 frame and 6-9.5 wingspan, than by what you’ve actually seen.” – Sean Deveney, Sportingnews.com

“An athletic and intelligent guard with great size, Exum has drawn comparisons to Penny Hardaway and Rookie of the Year Michael Carter-Williams of Philadelphia. Though there's been speculation about his NBA position (largely because of his size), those familiar with his game -- and Dante himself -- are adamant that he's a point guard.” – Jeremy Woo, SI.com
